This raises a good point.  A UCC account rarely comprises someone's only
access to e-mail these days.  I propose that someone creates a file called
something like /home/other/committee/members/alternate_e-mail.txt (mode
660) into which secondary addresses could be saved.  They could be taken
from the "What is your email address for UCC announcements?" field on the
membership form.

I volunteer to solicit and/or collate this information.

PS -- can someone please run "ls -l /home/other/committee/Minutes" for me?
